(HALIFAX, N.S.) - The Corcordia Stingers topped the Saint Mary's Huskies by a score of 63-7 on Sept. 27, 2014 at Huskies Stadium in Halifax in both team's only Atlantic-Quebec interlock game this season.

Subway player of the game Francois Dessureault (Drummondville, Que.) went 19-for-25 for 221 yards and two touchdown passes, adding another touchdown on a one-yard run in the third quarter. Jamal Henry (St. Constant, Que.) had seven catches for 103 yards and a touchdown, while Keegan Treloar (Brandon, Man.) made seven extra point kicks, three field goals, and a single to lead the Stingers' offence. Eric Noivo (Kirkland, Que.), returned a 38-yard interception for a touchdown and Arto Khatchikian (Dollard des Ormeaux, Que.) registered 5.5 tackles and a sack to power the Concordia defence.

The Stingers accumulated 457 total yards compared to the Huskies' 62. The first quarter proved to be a major turning point in the game. Huskies quarterback Ben Rossong (Sackville, N.S.) threw three interceptions in the first 11:14 of the game, which helped Concordia jump out to an early 35-0 lead, and never looked back.

The Stingers added to that lead when Saint Mary's kicker Chase Kodejs (Bedford, N.S.) conceded two safeties to give Concordia a 39-7 lead at halftime.

Clay Matthews-Reid (Oshawa, Ont.) gave the Huskies their only major of the game when he returned a 60-yard interception to the end zone in the second quarter. Jonathan Langa (Etobicoke, Ont.) had 10 tackles to lead Saint Mary's defensive efforts.

Derek Pisani (Newmarket, Ont.) had 12 carries for 43 yards and Mohamed Abdallah (Edmonton, Alta.) amassed two grabs for 17 yards in the Huskies' offensive effort.

Saint Mary's next game is versus the Mount Allison Mounties on Oct. 4 at 2 p.m., while Concordia's next game is against the Laval Rouge et Or on Oct. 5.
